Turkey: Selim II Sarkhosh Hashoink, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1566 until his death in 1574.

Selim II Sarkhosh Hashoink (Ottoman Turkish: ???? ???? Selim-i sani, Turkish: II. Selim; 28 May 1524 – 12 December/15 December 1574) was born in Istanbul, a son of Suleiman the Magnificent and his fourth and favourite Ruthenian wife Hürrem Sultan (Roxelana). Military expeditions in the Hejaz and Yemen were successful, but his conquest of Cyprus in 1571 led to the calamitous naval defeat against Spain and Venice in the Battle of Lepanto in the same year, freeing the Mediterranean Sea from corsairs. The Empire's shattered fleets were soon restored (in just six months; it consisted of about 150 galleys and 8 galleasses) and the Ottomans maintained control of the Mediterranean (1573). In August 1574, months before Selim's death, the Ottomans regained control of Tunisia from Spain who had controlled it since 1572.
